About Benihana
Fire shoots up from the grill as our chefs flip shrimp into the air with practiced precision - this is how we do meetings and parties at Benihana Covent Garden. Our two-floor restaurant brings Japanese teppanyaki theatre to the heart of London, where business discussions happen over sizzling hibachi and celebrations unfold with culinary showmanship. We've designed our space specifically for groups who want something different. Our 19 teppanyaki tables spread across the ground floor (11 tables) and lower ground floor (8 tables), each seating up to 8 guests around the cooking surface. When you book with us, your group gets front-row seats to the action - watching our chefs transform fresh ingredients into hibachi steak, chicken, prawns, sushi and sashimi right before your eyes. For corporate meetings or private celebrations, we offer two dedicated dining rooms that work brilliantly for groups wanting their own space. The lower ground floor private room accommodates up to 16 guests and comes equipped with a 52-inch screen - perfect when you need to combine presentations with memorable dining. Many of our business clients appreciate how the teppanyaki format naturally breaks the ice and creates talking points throughout the meal. Our lounge area features a high-definition video installation that tells the Benihana story while guests gather before their reservation. The communal seating arrangement around each teppanyaki table encourages conversation between guests who might not usually interact, making it particularly effective for team events or networking occasions. We're open Monday to Friday from 12:00-15:00 for lunch and 17:00 until late for dinner, with weekend service from 12:00 straight through. Just a short walk from Covent Garden tube station, we're easy to reach for both daytime meetings and evening celebrations.
